Madison, Wis.- Nadia Epshteyn (Cedarburg/Cedarburg) earned WIAC Kwik Trip Women's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week honors on Tuesday (Nov. 3) for her performances during the period of Oct. 26-Nov. 1.
Epshteyn powered the Titans' regular season finale 5-1 win over UW-River Falls on Oct. 31, with her first career hat trick. On five on-goal shots, she scored three times to double her point total on the season and help the Titans secure a spot in the WIAC Tournament.
She tallied her first goal in the 14th minute on a penalty kick and dribbled an unassisted goal to the net 10 minutes later to give the Titans a 3-0 lead before opening the second half scoring with her third goal by weaving through a pair of Falcon defenders. Three of her six goals have turned into game-winning scores this season.
Epshteyn and the Titans will begin postseason play tonight at 7 p.m. at UW-Whitewater for the first round of the WIAC Women's Soccer Tournament Presented by Culvers. Oshkosh finished the regular season with an 8-6-4 overall record including a 2-3-2 mark in WIAC play to earn the No. 6 seed.
